Demands for ultrahigh strength in structural materials have been steadily increasing in response to environmental issues. Maraging alloys offer a high tensile strength and fracture toughness through a ...

Materials scientists have recently discovered a new mechanism to increase the strength and ductility of a high-entropy alloy, two properties which normally vary inversely with each other. The findings ...

Refractory metals and alloys have high melting points and high strength at elevated temperatures. But one of the main challenges for their applications is the lack of room-temperature tensile ...

A kind of high-performance molybdenum alloy, nanoscale ZrC dispersion strengthened Mo alloy with high strength and excellent ductility, was fabricated recently by a collaborated research team from ...

Few discoveries in the field of high-performance metals have been able to rewrite the rules of metallurgy established decades ago. However, a team of researchers from Nagoya University has done just ...

A research team co-led by materials scientists from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has recently discovered a new mechanism to increase the strength and ductility of a high-entropy alloy, two ...
